Cute little spot off Maxwell Street with great momos. The tandoori was bomb, and the chicken filling is tender. The chat Momo was also interesting, as was the jhol. Would come back to try the others!

Excellent momos. You can’t be wrong only choice.
They also have great rice and curry dishes.
Chai is also great.

I’ve tried Momo at other places, but this place has the best quality and variety of exquisite Momo — and some of their Momo flavor combinations I wouldn’t imagine combining in my wildest dreams, and yet I pleasantly surprised each time I try a new one. The owner is also down to earth and nice, and the atmosphere is cute. Will be coming back for more!

Loved the momos, the orange and alfredo ones were my favorite. Definitely would recommend this place to anyone. The owner also helped choose because I did not know what to get, so that was really nice of her.

Came here for lunch after hearing the Infatuation rave about this place, totally lived up to the hype. They have an expansive menu with a ton of dumpling options, and I was totally blown away by their tandoori momos. Delightfully smokey and lightly charred and crispy, and the momos are really well spiced inside and out. I would absolutely put these in my top 5 dishes in the city.

Foods not good, Ordered sandeko momo , got tandoori momo. Momo lacked flavor, stale and seemed old. The dipping sauce wasn’t good either. The taas only had bones and was very old meat.

First impression: Good ambiance and no long wait for the food, which was a plus.
We tried the chilli veggie momos and veggie chow mein. Unfortunately, the plates were dirty—as if they hadn’t been washed properly. Old food particles seemed fused to the surface, which was quite off-putting.
We were told the momos would be spicy, which we were looking forward to, but they turned out to be overly tangy with a strong canned tomato flavor. The same goes for the chow mein— with some cheese, it would have tasted more like red sauce spaghetti pasta than an actual chow mein dish.
Maybe the experience would have been better with different menu items, but honestly, we’re not going to trust this place again.

The momo is very authentic to the Nepali taste and good. The fires were good too.The sekuwa although is far from traditional taste was okayish.

It is a small restaurant run by small family and the food was amazing. I highly recommend Tandoori and Jhol Momos. If you are a Momos or dumplings fan then you should definitely try ones.
